Enjoy the picturesque sunrises and sunsets on your own private pier overlooking the mighty Cape Fear River.

The expansive 1.2 acre lot includes a fenced in back yard, and an elaborate fenced in garden with multiple raised beds. The property has ample room to add a swimming pool. At this nature lover's paradise regular sightings include river otters, coyote, fox, raccoon, opossum, pileated woodpeckers, egrets, ibis, and even the occasional bald eagle make this a special place. In the last 3 years, the home has had complete renovations to include all baths and the kitchen. Solid surface countertops, new cabinetry, and stainless-steel GE cafe appliances were added. Also included in the renovations were a bar area with built-in ice maker and mini fridge, a full house generator, and custom cabinetry to the home office. All hardwood floors were refinished and the entire exterior was freshly painted recently. The heated & cooled storage area and the mechanical room on ground level are not included in sq. footage.
